[OLD REGGIE]

I challenge you to read the "Catechism of the Catholic Church." The Catechism is based on Holy Scripture for starters, so you would then see that this article is so full of lies and distortions that it is unworthy of debate. By posting this article, you have shown your ignorance and that you choose to believe lies instead of finding out the facts.

First, I agree that the article is full of half truths and distortions. I don't think it is worthy of serious discussion.

Second, I think it is possible that nearly as many Protestants have read the Catechism as have Catholics. Very close to none!

Probably a lot further away from zero than you might expect. I keep a copy on my Palm (except during those episodes where I swear that after this time getting fixed that I'll never buy another one again) and, along with the Virtual Rosary and the Douay Rheims version of the Bible, find that my portable scriptural and spiritual texts needs are met quite well.

I've read the Catechism and I have a copy of it, so I will be glad to debate it with you after you have read it.

I still stand by my statement that Protestant theology is disingenuous and I will be glad to point out the many ways it is (just not today as I am on an old computer and it is likely to go down at any minute).

I know many protestants, and not one has touched the CCC. Nearly every Catholic I know has read it. You are way off on this comment.

Many Catholics have read the Catechism. We reference it all the time. And there is a new more concise version called the Compendium that is easier.
